Trinkets Thar Are Popular.

It Is some years since the jewelers. made
the lucky pig popular trinket. Every
one for time wore lucky pigs as charms,
bangles or Whit not. When pork became
surfeit the elephant took its place. Men
dangled them at their watch chains and
women wore them in their ears. They
were made into pins and pendants, and
even adapted to the. establishment OF
finger RINGS and bracelets.
The eye of destiny-an Egyptian
emblem, was the next fad. Now it is a
mouse. Mouse jewelry is already the 60
In London and Paris, and is commencing
to find favor here. And women, who
stand most in dread of the little living
beast, will do him honor in effigy for
fashions sake. What with pigs and
elephants and mice, the adaptation Of the
animal kingdom to decorative purposes is
well begun. Before the work is done we
shall probably be able to muster COM
plete menagerie in a collection of the
average bellies obsolete jewelry.
Some very queer charms have come into
vogue lately, in the shape of South
American beetles. These insects are
caught and dried. They become quite
hard, and their backs afford beautiful
play of iridescent colors. They arc set in
rims of gold, and often whole necklaces
are made of item. But they arc costly
>trinkets, for their shells are easily crushed,
when they drop to Gust in their settings.

Sea Lions in Central Park.

The eight sea lions at Central park are
just now attracting much attention. They
were captured Gbaut q month ago on st.
Paul's and St. Georges islands OH the
coast of Alaska, and arrived here last
week overland from San francisco. The
animals made the journey in big crates,
reaching their destination in just six days
and eight hours. They were badly fright
ened by their trip and would not eat any,
thing at first, but they We're nevertheless
the eight happiest sea lions iii existence
when they were set free in the cranes
pond at the park and found that the water
was really wet. They plunged into the
pool one after another rs fast as they were
released and speedily congregated in the
center, where they poked up their long,
shining noses at the moon, and beloved
COW! ow! own' with masculine, Wild
West show accent Then they turned over
and over like acrobatic dolDhins with big
fiippers and made the water foam until
they were tired with their exertions, when
they reassembled in the center Of the
basin and rubbed noses and caressed each
other in their excess of joy.
There is nice little house on the banks
of the basin filled with soft hay, and the
ground for some distance around the
house is literally strewn with hay. But
the lions at first preferred to huddle to-
gether in the basin, where nobody could
get good view of them. Keeper Shan
non tried to rout them out with long
pole, but his efforts only resulted in set
ting the sea lions snarling like tigers
Several expedients were tried with sim
liar result Finally an assistant pro
duced a family umbrella and holding it
toward the lions opened and shut it as
fast as he could The lions gave terrific
chorus of lows, = which they changed to a
prolonged snarl of 'sb-r-r-r," and with
awkward, ungainly founders clambered
over the sides of the basin and Topped
along the bank in great haste to escape
from the umbrella. New York Tribune.

NEWSPAPERS IN 1887.

Geo. p. Rowell y Co., OF New York,
will issue on Monday, May and, the
Nineteenth Annual edition of their
standard publication. the American
Newspaper Directory"
The new volume contains an exhaus-
tive list of all Class Publications so adj
mirably arranged that any one of the
three thousand papers represented
there can be readily referred to and all
importent facts concerning it, together
with its circulation rating easily obtain
ed. 800
The Newspaper Directory will be used
principally by publishers, Advertisers
and Advertising Agents, but the vast
fund of information it contains makes
il valuable to persons of almost every
trade and profession. As Gazetteer
alone it is well worth the price charged,
IS 90, for it fully describes every town
in which newspaper is issued, and
few people care to know about any
place where any is not.
The number of papers published in
the United States, Territories (includ-
ing Alaska)-and Canada is put at r., 40 !;
an increase of 5SI in one year.
The growth of newspapers in some of
the Western States would be matter
of wonder, sifi it were not that this year
is no deception to the rule In Kansas
the increase is SO and in Nebraska 81 !;
while the Keystone State showed a
smaller advance of SIS and the Buckeye
State Of 90. Pennsylvania exhibits the
largest increase in dailies, II Kansas
in week1ies, ST, and NewYork in month
lies, ar. Seven States show a decrease:
the. most prominent instances being
New hampshire and Virginia, six each.
The whole volume shows that great
care has been takento sustain its repu-
tation as the most comprehensive.work
of the kind yet published, and to insure
accuracy in every detail. Anything
less than "a complete compendium Of
American newspapers and periodicals
would surprise those who are familiar
with the former efforts Of this firm, who
are SO we'll known asthe oldest, largest
and best known of all the American
Advertising Agencies.

Draining the Milk Cans.

The hundreds of big tin cans which come to
the city before day break filled with milk and
cream are returned to the "milk yards" Of the
railroads before 10 o'clock each morning. 1t
is the popular impression that the milkman
makes little milk go as far as possible, mas
much as the fluid often bears prima facie evil

eral use OF water. There are a certain class
Of people, however, who have much faith in
the milkman. They are the poor women and
children who live in the squalid districts
lying on either side Of the great railroad
tracks. They come to the "milk yards every
morning as soon as the milkmen have re-
turned their cans and with pitchers and pals
